Thaburi 20

1 Thaburi ya Daudi Jehova arogwĩtĩka rĩrĩa ũrĩ mĩnyamaro-inĩ; rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai wa Jakubu rĩrokũgitĩra.

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high,

2 Arokũrehere ũteithio kuuma handũ harĩa hake haamũre, na agũtiirĩrĩre arĩ kũu Zayuni.

send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion,

3 Aroririkana magongona maku mothe, na etĩkĩre maruta maku ma njino.

remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice. (Selah)

4 Arokũhe maũndũ marĩa ngoro yaku ĩĩrirĩirie, na atũme mĩbango yaku yothe ĩgaacĩre.

May he grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfil all your counsel.

5 Rĩrĩa ũkaahootana nĩtũkoigĩrĩria na gĩkeno, na tuoye bendera ciitũ na igũrũ nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai witũ. Jehova arokũhingĩria maũndũ marĩa mothe ũmũhooete.

We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May the LORD grant all your requests.

6 Rĩu nĩmenyete atĩ Jehova nĩahonokagia ũrĩa wake mũitĩrĩrie maguta; nĩamwĩtĩkaga arĩ kũu igũrũ rĩake rĩamũre, arĩ na ũhoti wa kũhonokania ũrĩa ũrĩ guoko-inĩ gwake kwa ũrĩo.

Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

7 Andũ amwe mehokaga ngaari cia ita, na angĩ makehoka mbarathi, no ithuĩ twĩhokaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai witũ.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

8 Makurumaga makagũa thĩ, no ithuĩ tũrũgamaga tũkehaanda.

They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.

9 Wee Jehova, honokia mũthamaki! Twĩtĩkage rĩrĩa twagũkaĩra!

Save, LORD! Let the King answer us when we call!
